One of my favorite American restaurant in Houston....

One of my favorite American restaurant in Houston. At lease I will go every year on the houston Restaraunt month. Sometimes for lunch sometimes for dinner.

This year we decide to go for the dinner menu, looks like it has plenty of selections. We arrived on time, since it is a bday celebration, the restaurant decorated our table with bday ballons, which is awesome!

Service is superb, the free garlic bread appetizer was so good that I was half full when my real dish came. Lol. $3 orange juice, not bad.

Turtle soup has very strong flavor, not bad, I ordered the fried frog leg, big portion, fresh meat, crispy outside, tender inside, didn't taste like chicken. Lol. My entre was the 6oz filet, thank god i ordered the medium rare, my friend had the medium and it was super dry, the short rib was also very dry, sides on that entree was super salty, although the flavor was there, the presentation is not bad, but the dryness and salty is almost in most dishes. Even tho for the price of $45, it is not a bad deal with Brennan's but I don't feel it's their regular standard, definitely didn't meet my expectations.

Banana frosting is always the best desert with the cooking in front of us. My donuts are pretty good with the hazelnut sauce on the side.

Like I said, the service is great, ambience is super nice. But the food was pretty disappointing.

Hope they will do better, it's a good thing for participate in this houston restaurant week event, I hope they will cherish this opportunity.
